New Camaro Z/28. Warning: looking at this may require a change of pants

You have a great point there...and the V6ers save a few lbs off the front of an already relatively light machine (~3650ish for the GT, ~3550ish for the V6)...so the balance is even better. Add in some sticky rubber, heavy duty shocks, springs/sways and you have a downright respectable sports car that still runs 13s stock. I read that you really get the optional 3.15 axle ratio and the 6spd to have fun though.

The V6 Performance Package gives you 3.31s along with significant brake and suspension upgrades.
